-porridge (there is a water instead of milk, recipe online)-chicken bones-Oh and I once made a glue made of 4 things (all safe for mice) and I put it on there popsicle stick houses. Then I gave them a little bit and THEY WERE CRAZY OVER IT! Dont know why...-fingernails (they like them) -bandages (when im not looking)

I have often offered fruit am funny as it is none of my mice like fruit...wow my mice are strange

My girls LOVE fresh green beans, baby spinach leaves and kale. They go crazy for the veggies. I also notice that some of the leaves are used as bedding LOL. Nothing like snuggling up with a friend in a batch of comfy kale leaves (?) Two of the girls (Pixie & Panda) really like to sit in the corner and dig out the little beans from their pods to eat. Watching these little squeakers is so much fun!Also, their favorite pre-packaged food is the cockatiel seed mixes. All kinds of seeds, oats, millet, nuts. I of course supplement this with the lab blocks for good protein & vitamins. They also seem to prefer Corn Flakes cereal instead of Cheerios.

I know junk food is frowned on but my brats love a bite of pork rinds as a treat. I have tried many "good" foods and a few Mice specialty foods bought in pet stores mine will pick out most of it . They refuse pellets of any kind . Tho they Love the Generic Chex *Oat bran* and Honey Nut Cherrios

I was surprised not to see walnuts on here as a food to avoid as they are very toxic and will kill them. .so will salted nuts like salted peanutsAlso if you're mice get sores on their tails and they are eating peanuts. ..stop feeding them peanuts as most mice are allergic to them (learned this the hard way) also. .. mice will dig into an apple for the seeds. .. I would imagine too many would be bad ..just as they are bad for humans if we consume a cup and a half. ..but whose gonna sit there and eat a cup and a half of apple seeds? Lol. . My current mice get apple seeds on occasion they are nearing 3 years old this October and they are very healthy. ..they also get the occasional almond and they love them I imagine the almonds are discouraged for the same reasons apple seeds are. ..for anyone who would like to know more about Apple seeds I'd suggest looking up and watching a documentary called "A life without Cancer" it touches on apples and apple seeds right in the beginning :-) thank you so much for the list! I am very glad to know I can expand on my mices diets safely <3
